According to Invenglobal.com, the developing team behind the online card game said that they are taking the elements of the Deadmines dungeon that players of the role-playing game know and love, and fear, and create a carbon copy of it for Hearthstone.
Among the 66 cards, four of them will Legendary, while 1 of them will be Epic. Fourteen of them will be Rare Cards, while the remaining 16 are Common Cards.
Once they have bought the mini-set, players can play cards such as Need for Greed, Crow's Nest Lookout, Druid of the Reef, Defias Blastfisher, Monstrous Parrot, Grey Sage Parrot, Golakka Blutton, Sunwing Squawker, Amulet of Undying, Defias Leper, Blackwater Cutlass, Brilliant Macaw, Shadowblade Slinger, Wicked Shipment, and Man the Cannons.
The developers will reveal the other cards in few more days, including Legendary ones, but from the looks of the trailer for the said card set, players might expect Edwin VanCleef, the leader of the Defias Brotherhood, will make his return in the game as a Legendary Card.
The Deadmines mini-set, according to Dot Esports, will be rolled out in Hearthstone this coming November 1st, and it will be sold for either $14.99 or 2,000 Gold.
Possible Changes
Aside from the new mini-set, Hearthstone will also receive the Patch 21.6 Update, which will add and change several elements in its game modes.

These characters include Edwin, Defias Kingpin (a Legendary Fighter), Eudora (an Epic Fighter), Sneed (an Epic Protector), Mr. Smite (a Rare Protector), and Cookie, the Cook (a Rare Caster).

Aside from these new characters, Mercenaries will also receive new abilities and pirate synergies thanks to the Patch 21.6 Update.
